Hmmm.
I have worked with two and l learnt a lot of lesson. The man stays two weeks in Nigeria (best hotel in Lagos) and two weeks in USA.
1. They value their time. They believe time is money. The man prefers you take uber to a treckable distance to save time.
2. They value their tools, car anything than you. They will tell you how they bought a spoon/spanner in Canada and if you don't handle it well, they can sack you. They believe there are thousands of you outside than the stress the will undergo to get things you misplace.
3. They are very stingy. They don't see you that you can have any help to render for them financially. Nollywood is nonsense to them. They can send you an errand and expect change of #50
4. If you are very good and diligent, they will use you and want you to be slave to them. If possible your children and you be also slave to their unborn children in the future.
5. Despite doing your job diligently and being loyal doesn't mean anything to them. You are only doing your job even with your overtime. They fire you at any slightly mistake without remembering your sacrifice. Im
6. They don't need your idea. In there mind, you should keep your idea to yourself. Their idea is the best. To them, you should go and use your idea to be rich.
7. They forget to pay salary sometimes because of their schedule. They can decide to own you for months. They believe they must exploit the poor to be more richer. A poor employee is a tool in the hand of the rich.
8. Working for them doesn't make your life better or rich. You can work for an average person and achieve a lot than the so called rich. They prefer you eat best food with them than to be given cash. Eat with them and have energy to do work in the next day is their believe. They believe if youare given cash and you are comfortable, you nay be rich.
9. Most doesn't believe in religion especially the Christian one. They mock pastors and laugh, when they are in their mist. They can send imam or pastors to mecca/ Jerusalem so that you can keep praying for them.

Very true. It's too late by the time they realise what's going on

It's good that you're straightforward and honest. Sadly though, many women don't know the value of it
tru,many attitude from both men and women, changes the real person some time after a relationship breakup ,but its okay to still be straightforward, someone attitude towards you shouldn't be wat u use in harming your future who aren't aware ,,,

To work with elite men or people of high calibers, you gotta buy into their reality and make it yours.

Nothing like your own life or career path, it must align with theirs else you'll be tagged unloyal.



Oh yes! They would call you disloyal and even more names the one time you say No to their request.

There’s nothing like your own life. Don’t get me wrong some may be different.

That's why I love rich people... They force people with brain to build their own wealth and retain people without brain to continue asslicking them

What they have gone through before they become rich,sharpens them to new behavior

E. g some of them were church people before they gave up on prayer and start working hard only. When they achieve their aim without regular going to church, they will start questioning God's existence.

They are religious in words, but atheist in action.

Some of them suffered humiliation just because of poverty and God didn't come to rescue them.

They are not horrible at all.

You just need to negotiate well before working with them. You can work with an average company over years to add value to yourself and be a professional. Immediately you are for an interview to work with them, negotiate properly and package yourself well. If they want you, they are ready to employ u. You must value your off-time period into negotiations
My boss can call you middle of the night to get job update (time difference of USA to Nigeria)

Most of them are very hardworking and doesn't joke with relaxation. Their schedule may be tight but they don't joke with vacation.

They don't eat anyhow. A poor man can eat five EBA with one meat, but the rich will eat snail and vegetable to be healthy.

There are good ones, example is a man who is presently a state governor in southwest. His name start with M. Before he became governor, he is a philanthropist, a cheerful giver. He will buy children cloths from USA and ask staff to share and give to their children. His drivers usually fight each other with hr so that they can drive him. He will ensure you buy a land. For instance, he can ask you where is your land, if you are stammering that you have #200k and the land is #500k. He will write check of #300k for you so that you can buy and assist you while you are building it.
He send workers for training irrespective of your tribe. Let me stop there.

The button line is, negotiate well during interview, don't expect any cheap money because they are rich and plan your life. Even in free town, nothing is free. always be honest


You will learn from them. I think l av learn a lot from their way of life

I wish there is a better way to present this.

Have you ever worked or currently working under a super rich man/woman? a celebrity a high class politician? please share your experience with them.

Based on my own experience with my former boss(A billionaire businessman), the rich live like any other people out there, nothing so special. They have their own 'common' problems too. they also quarrel over petty things as well.

PROS: My former boss was very good to me. He took me as his own brother. We used to attend events together. I mean, super private events in places like ikoyi and banana island.
Imagine the thought that'll be running through your mind when you know that you don't actually belong to a gathering.
(flamboyant life at ikoyi in the day, your own reality by evening, a rented apartment in Ogba).

CONS: While I was with him, I didn't have my time to myself.


That could had been my dad but I distance the man I work for myself, I stay ogba too buzz me on telegram

The things I can say about them is that most of them are very stingy to thier workers who are working for the growth of their wealth, but if you see them in the party you would weep, if you see the way they lavish money would make you cry. They pay peanuts money and sometimes they own money of their worker. they don't care about you only thier family and thier wealth would be growing more is thier main goal. you can be working with rich and still be poor.

Imagine someone feeling fly and entitled to someone's money... It's this entitlement mentality that discourages me from helping a lot of people.

No matter how many times you help, that once you failed to help, you become stingy.

They wouldn't remember other times you help them, nor even attempt to pay back their loan.

They expect you to forget it. After all, you're rich!!!

What you have described is exactly the attitude most poor people have and this is the reason they find it difficult to break away from the shackles of poverty!

i will just share my own experience, wont even go near my boss, i will just share my experience being friend with the presumed super rich abi na elite rich.
1) Some of them are not really rich, they just appear to be rich.
2)If you want to make it in life dont feel your rich friend or family will always help you or whether they will give you the kind of support you feel they should give you.
3)Rich people hardly give money for free, you have to work for them, they wont wake up one morning and tell you to send your account number, it wont happen you have to work for the money you get from them. Eg my guy no worry i go help you supervise your project. You just have to do something before their money can enter your hand.
4)Getting more money is key to them
5)They have had their own fair share of ''the evil people do'' and they use those experiences to treat others they come across with (dont assume they know you are different, they know but they are never going to let their guards dwon).
6)If you are not their day one forget it, you can hardly build any reasonable personal relationship with them.
7) Make your own money dnt ever rely on their own, dont ever assume that you have them. ''You go choke''.
coolTheir money is not enough for them.
9)Aviod making emotional decisions because of them, they dont care.
DISCLAIMER: everything written above are from my personal experiences.
